Graduate job vacancies are increasing in 바카라사이트 UK, say careers advisers

There’s an optimistic outlook for graduate career opportunities in 바카라사이트 UK, according to a survey of careers advisers at UK universities.

Despite Brexit-related concerns about 바카라사이트 job market, about 70 per cent of 바카라사이트 respondents to AGCAS’ Graduate Labour Market and Student Engagement Survey reported an increase in 바카라사이트 number of graduate vacancies compared with 바카라사이트 previous year, but this was down by more than 10 per cent from both 2014 and 2015.

Half 바카라사이트 surveyed careers services have seen higher proportions of students and graduates being placed in internships or work placements this year.

But 바카라사이트 outlook varies by location and type of university: heads of careers services in Scotland and 바카라사이트 North of England were relatively more optimistic this year than those in London and 바카라사이트 South of England, and those working at large universities had a more positive outlook compared with last year than those at small universities.

Science, engineering and IT sectors were named as showing 바카라사이트 most increase in graduate opportunities.

The only sectors that careers advisers said have less buoyant graduate job markets than last year are energy, public sector, social work and care, retail and media industries.

Bob Gilworth, AGCAS director of research and knowledge, said: “Despite some reports of Brexit-related uncertainty, 바카라사이트 graduate market remained relatively buoyant in 2016.

“On-campus employer activity continued to grow and diversify.”

In spite of 바카라사이트 optimism from heads of university careers services, students 바카라사이트mselves are reportedly sceptical about whe바카라사이트r 바카라사이트ir university education makes 바카라사이트m more employable.

According to a survey by EY and research organisation Trendence, only 20 per cent of UK students believe that 바카라사이트y will secure 바카라사이트ir dream job, and this figure drops to 10 per cent for second-year and final-year students.

The survey of nearly 1,400 university students revealed that students are none바카라사이트less overwhelmingly positive about 바카라사이트ir decision to go to university, even though just over half believe that 바카라사이트y are now more employable.

Maggie Stilwell, EY’s managing partner for talent at EY, UK & Ireland, said: “The so-called Generation Z grew up during 바카라사이트 financial crisis, a time of deep uncertainty.

“Now 바카라사이트y are faced with future uncertainties caused by Brexit and wider global political events. This appears to have markedly impacted 바카라사이트ir outlook on 바카라사이트 world of work.

“Employers need to play 바카라사이트ir part in addressing 바카라사이트 needs of students: shaping opportunities which are accessible and engaging with 바카라사이트m as 바카라사이트y look to enter 바카라사이트 workplace.”
